A SQUARE RECTANGULAR PRISM (BASE IS A SQUARE) HAS A
VOLUME OF 38 CU. IN. THE HEIGHT IS 10 LESS THAN THE AREA
OF THE BASE. WHAT IS THE HEIGHT? NO UNITS.

Answers

Answer 1

The height of the prism [tex]\approx 2.9[/tex]

The whole volume of the prism is

[tex]\text{Volume} = \text{Area of base}\times \text{Height}[/tex]

Here, the volume is 38 cu. in.

From the question, the area and the height are related as follows;

[tex]\text{Height} = \text{Area} - 10 \implies \text{Height + 10} =\text{Area}[/tex]

Substituting this into the formula for the volume, we get

[tex]\text{Volume}=(\text{Height} +10)\times \text{Height}=38\\\\\text{Height}^2 + 10\times\text{Height}=38\\\\\text{Height}^2 + 10\times\text{Height}-38=0[/tex]

If the above quadratic equation is solved for the height, we get

[tex]\text{Height}\approx 2.9[/tex]

(We can't take the other solution since height has to be greater than zero)

The chances that you will be ticketed for illegal parking on campus are about 1/3. During the last nine days, you have illegally parked every day and have NOT been ticketed (you lucky person!). Today, on the 10th day, you again decide to park illegally. The chances that you will be caught are:

Answers

2/3*9=6
6/10=3/5
3/5 chance to be caught

The required probability of getting caught on the 10th day is 3/5.

What is probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.

Here,
Probability of getting caught in 9 days
= [1 - 1/3]*9=6

The probability of getting on the tenth day is given as,

= 6/10
=3/5

Thus, the required probability of getting caught on the 10th day is 3/5.

how do I solve this linear inequality?
5x - 7 > 4x + 8

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

just like an equation.

5x - 7 > 4x + 8 | -4x + 7

x > 15

and that is your result.

in contrast to an equation, an inequality delivers a range as result and not a single point.

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf x > 15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 7 > 4x + 8

Subtract 4x to both sides, and Add 7 to both sides

5x - 4x > 8 + 7

x > 15

Answers

Answer:

y > -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-5y-2<8

= -5y<8+2

∴ y > -2

Note: Anytime you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality, you must “flip” or change the direction of the inequality sign.

What function represents the next graph?

Answers

Answer:

Option 1:  y = (x - 2)² + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertex, (2, 2), of an upward-facing parabola, and using the y-intercept of the graph, (0, 6):

Definitions:

The vertex form of the quadratic equations is:

y = a(x - h)² + k

where:

(h, k) is the vertex.

The value of h represents the horizontal translation of the graph. h > 0 represents the horizontal shift of the graph h units to the right. h < 0 shifts the graph |h | units to the left. The value of k  represents the vertical translation of the graph. k > 0 shifts the graph k units upward. k < 0 shifts the graph |k | units down.

The sign of a  determines the direction of the graph's opening. The value of a also determines the vertical stretch or shrink of the graph.

If a is positive (or a > 1), then the graph opens upward. The value of a > 1 also represents the vertical stretch of the graph.  If a is negative (or a < 0), then the graph opens down.The value of 0 < a < 1 represents the vertical shrink or compression of the graph.

Solution:

Substitute the values of the vertex (2, 2) and the y-intercept, (0, 6) into the  vertex form to solve for the value of the coefficient, a:

y = a(x - h)² + k

6 = a(0 - 2)² + 2

6 = a(-2)² + 2

6 = 4a + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides

6 - 2 = 4a + 2 - 2

4 = 4a

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for a :

[tex]\displaytext\mathsf{\frac{4}{4} \:=\frac{4a}{4}}[/tex]

a = 1

Quadratic Equation in Vertex Form:

Therefore, given the vertex, (2, 2) and a = 1, the quadratic equation in vertex form is: y = (x - 2)² + 2, thereby matching Option 1.

Jane needs to make a four-letter password. If the first letter has to be a vowel, how many possibilities are there to choose from where y is not a vowel

Answers

The vowels are A,E,I,O,U so 5 because if you add them together it’s 5

The number of possibilities for Jane for making the four letter password (either upper case or lower case) with first letter being a vowel is 1406080

What is the rule of product in combinatorics?

If a work A can be done in p ways, and another work B can be done in q ways, then both A and B can be done in [tex]p \times q[/tex] ways.

Remember that this count doesn't differentiate between order of doing A first or B first then doing other work after the first work.

Thus, doing A then B is considered same as doing B then A

We need to find the number of ways a four letter password can be made The first letter is fixed to be a vowel.

There are 10 vowels (5 of lowercase and 5 of upper case).

Thus, 10 ways of choosing the first letter.

Second letter can be any of the 52 letters(26 of lowercase and 26 of uppercase).

Similarly, third and fourth letter can be any of the 52 letters.

Thus, using the product rule, the number of ways of making the four letter password is:

[tex]N = 10 \times 52 \times 52 \times 52 = 1406080[/tex]

(the answer can be different if we consider only either lowercase letters or only upper case letters. In those cases, there would be [tex]5 \times 26^3 = 87880[/tex] ways to make such passwords).

We used product rule, since we wanted to do the choosing of all the four letters for password, and we knew the number of ways each of them can be done individually.

Thus,  the number of possibilities for Jane for making the four letter password (either upper case or lower case) with first letter being a vowel is 1406080
